Happy Kitchen — Restaurant in New York

Happy kitchen? More like depressed as all hell kitchen. and awkward kitchen too.

My friend and I decided we wanted some authentic Japanese cuisine and saw this place has some great reviews and really lively photos. When we entered the store was completely empty (Which may be the reason for my next statement) and the staff, from the waiters to the chefs (You can see all when entering the restaurant) had the gloomiest, saddest expressions. They did not look too "Happy" at all. The waiter was very quiet and somewhat awkward, though this is just complaining as I just prefer lively and up beat waiters.

So why the 3 star? Their food may have saved them I don't think my food was made with any kind of love at all, but it sure did taste good. My friend and I ordered chicken curry and it tasted great. I just wish the environment wasn't...

If I could give this place -1000 stars I would, MOST UNPROFESSIONAL, RUDE place you can ever order from. I ordered from them and got the wrong order after one hour ( live two blocks from them) then the delivery guy comes and demands the food back and they are going to give it to another customer ( even though it’s been opened) and he’s going to go get my food from someone else. That is so disgusting and unsanitary and then when I ask for a refund he tries to give me the purchase receipt and lie that this will get automatically refunded. How am I going to beleive that unless they give me a return or refund. If you guys want a better sushi experience just go to Okawa a few blocks away honestly, you won’t be so...

Frustrating Experience at Happy Restaurant

Despite the promise of a pleasant dining experience, the excessive wait severely dampened my enthusiasm.

Additionally, the language barrier with the waiter further complicated the visit. Their inability to understand English made it challenging to communicate our preferences and led to a less than satisfactory interaction. This hindered the overall enjoyment of our meal and left us...
